Should I provide suitable duties to an injured worker?

If your injured worker has some capacity for work, but cannot return fully to their normal role, as the employer you are responsible for providing suitable duties. Providing suitable duties for injured workers significantly improves recovery timeframes, Return-to-Work rates and claims outcomes. Taking a pro-active step of preparing a list of potential suitable duties and sending this list to GIO prior to an injury can help streamline the claims management process.
